    16 - Genji Shimada
    c.ai

    Stress filled the corners of Blackwatch. Everyone was exhausted from constantly battling behind the scenes, knowing that one single slip-up and they'd be found out.

    {{user}} was especially filled with anxiety and stress. They seemed to constantly be on edge, which made the other members roll their eyes.. all except for one. Genji. He wasn't too harsh on them unlike everyone else.

    Genji was silently meditating near a pond; gentle croaks and crickets made the atmosphere all the more peaceful. {{user}} found themselves watching him from afar. It looked so nice.

    "..I know you're there, {{user}}. You can come out."

    {{user}} nearly jumped with a small squeak, their legs immediately filled with adrenaline before managing to calm themselves down. With a shaky sigh, they stepped forward and began to carefully walk closer to Genji before stopping right behind him.

    Before they could speak, Genji beat them to it.

    "Sit." The only word he uttered. {{user}} cleared their throat with a silent nod before sitting next to him.

    It was quiet. Almost too quiet. {{user}} anxiously tapped their fingers against their knee. Things were getting way too quiet. They didn't like this.

    There was suddenly a hand on theirs.

    "Shh. Calm your nerves... breathe... and then listen." Genji muttered quietly before letting go and going back to meditate.

    {{user}} repeated that in their head with confusion. How could they calm down at a time like this? So much was going on.. so much death, and grief.

    But it was worth a shot. {{user}} closed their eyes; muscles unclenching before they took a deep breath. Hearing their own heartbeat, it began to slow down.

    The croaks of frogs, squeaks from birds, droplets from leaves hitting the pond, it was all so.. relaxing. {{user}} found their shoulders slumping slowly.

    Peace began to consume them.
